Yes, I can personally confirm that this game is Actraiser. What a classic. You're up.

And as far as that Darkstalkers pic goes... It could also be Night Warriors on the Sega Saturn (import) or some uber-combo game that had all the Night Warriors/Darkstalkers games on one disk for the Dreamcast (also import). No, I'm not a gaming geek.

I also stand by my position that FF6/3 was the best of Square's titles (and, yes, I've played them all since then).

So my brother didn't really own many games growing up, and he would try to play them when I wasn't around to piss me off. For the most part I didn't care, because most of his games didn't interest me... except for two of them - Contra (NES) and this one:

I remember almost coming to blows begging him for just 5 minutes with this stupid game.

Well, I'm out on this one. Looks like pre-NES and post Atari 2600, but beyond that I have no clue.

And it's not the Atari 2600 version I use to play so long ago, either.

Nope. I mentioned Colecovision, so I thought I'd toss it into the mix.

I remember buying the Colecovision because it could play 2600 games. I sold the Atari to a couple of scam artists with a fake check and was out the money I needed to buy the Colecovision. Fortunately, my dad felt guilty for not spotting the scam (he really handled the transaction) and got it for me anyway. Of course, I never got an Atari expansion deck (did one ever come out?), but by then who needed it. The Colecovision ruled! w00t indeed!

Colecovision's had those awesome controllers with the dial on it. I bought one simply because at the time it was the only way to get 'Donkey Kong' on your television, but I don't think I played the thing at all once I got my Intellivision. In fact, I'm not sure I even remember any of my other Coleco games besides DK... what was the best game that came out for that system?
